LinkedIn- Yes, It can help you meet people and find a job!

LinkedIn  can be applied both to an individual hunting for a job, but also to businesses and brands pushing their products and services.  Having a strong individual presence on LinkedIn can also help in establishing a presence for a business or company.

Important things to do on LinkedIn

• build your own network!
• use LinkedIn to aid in finding work
• Create and join LinkedIn groups
• Add examples of projects to expand your LinkedIn portfolio
• make posts and provide updates

Don't abandon your profile on LinkedIn! It's a representation of you and should show your product. If you manage a LinkedIn page for a company, it will likely link to your profile. 

One thing to note is that if you're trying to create a LinkedIn profile for a company, you should have an official website and a company e-mail address.  LinkedIn also allows for businesses to create advertisements. 

The best way to understand LinkedIn is by using it! For that reason, I finally added a profile picture to my LinkedIn and am in the process of updating it and expanding my network.

A well updated Linkedin should include:

• A summary of who you are
• work experience
• volunteer experience
• Links to projects  to create a digital portfolio. 
• skills
• connections
• endorsements 

The best way to keep a LinkedIn account updated and accurate is to schedule time in intervals like once a week for 20 minutes or even 30 minutes a month.

So, go try to make a LinkedIn and see what connections you can find!
